Michael Kors To Marry Partner Lance LaPere

The Famous: Watching the Watched

Now that gay marriage is legal in New York, Michael Kors intends to wed his longtime partner, Lance LaPere. Page Six confirms the couple -- spotted at the city clerk's office in Manhattan on Wednesday -- had picked up their marriage license.

"Lance and I are very excited to finally be able to have the opportunity to marry in our home state after many years together," Kors says in a statement. "We have no plans for a major party, but we will be getting married privately."

The "Project Runway" fashion guru met LaPere in 1990 when he was an intern at his company; they live together in the West Village. However they decide to tie the knot, let's hope Kors trades his signature black turtleneck-and-sport coat ensemble for something spiffier. LaPere can just stand there, looking ridiculously handsome.
